There was another arson last night in Montreal, this time at the Empire cafe on Jean-Talon. Damages were minimal. At least one Molotov cocktail was thrown.
The significance of the cafe is that it is one place the leaders of the so-called mafia roundtable have used for meetings, where Vito Rizzuto was often seen after his return to Montreal, and it was known as a site for cash envelopes pertaining to sports betting and loansharking.
